Sacramento Republic FC secured a narrow 1-0 victory over El Farolito SC, thanks to an early goal in the first half at the 29th minute. Despite finishing with a slender lead, Sacramento’s win was underpinned by their effective use of set-pieces, reflected in their six corner kicks compared to El Farolito's five. Sacramento’s only goal was facilitated by these set-pieces' pressure, showcasing their proficiency in capitalizing on half-chances.

Both teams displayed a high-intensity approach, marked by an abundance of yellow cards, with Sacramento accumulating nine and El Farolito four. This aggressive style possibly disrupted the rhythm of play, leading to less fluidity and more interruptions due to fouls. Despite the high number of cautions, Sacramento managed to maintain composure, avoiding red cards and ensuring their defensive solidity remained intact throughout the match.

El Farolito, although showing resilience, struggled to break down a well-organized Sacramento defense. The visitors couldn't convert any of their chances despite having a similar number of corner opportunities, highlighting a lack of cutting-edge in the final third. While both teams were relatively balanced in their tactical setups, Sacramento's slightly better execution during key moments, particularly in defense and set-piece situations, defined their victory on the day.
